Hey all, so per title, not an Exige thread, but I thought collectively you might offer some advice. I was in Italy last week, it was my wife’s birthday and I “accidentally” brought a lovely 1967 Fiat 500 for her… She always wanted one and has a current 500. It won me a few brownie points and it’s a great little car .
Now home it’s just organising moving it! Without any suggestions of driving it back as 25bhp and 40-50mph from Rome doesn’t appeal… Has anyone else done similar have any recommendations?? I think a shipping agent will be about £850 (can anyone recommend one?).
I have thought about driving down and towing it back. I have a large estate car, I wouldn’t want to trek down towing an empty trailer, I thought about getting a towing dolly or towing solid bar so I could drive down smoothly with it in the boot and hook up there so just one trip with something out back. I don’t know the realities of using an a-frame/dolly/fixed tow bar for towing a car that distance and if allowed.
A shipper may be the answer, but interested to test the options. Any ideas, I’ve not done similar before.
I’ll post a pic of the tiny car later if of interest
